Not too heavy..something light please
In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Beneficent. He controls all things; everything that breaths, everything that walks and everything that speaks. We will all be judged and we will all be rewarded accordingly. Nobody can escape Resurrection Day. Allah will be the The True Judge and everyone will summoned. Every witness will be present and every aching heart state will be known. How our heart leave earth is how it will be presented during hereafter.
"Allah! There is no god but He, the Living, the Self-subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him nor sleep. His are all things in the heavens and on earth. Who is there can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth? He knoweth what (appeareth to His creatures as) Before or After or Behind them. Nor shall they compass aught of His knowledge except as He willeth. His Throne doth extend over the heavens and the earth, and He feeleth no fatigue in guarding and preserving them for He is the Most High, the Supreme (in glory)." [Al-Baqarah: 255]
Insya Allah, we are still alive and well because of many reasons. May be Allah is giving us the chance to return to Him or it could be that He wants us to take the time to think about our past sins and repent. Some of us may be having a hard time to reflect at our condition. True, our friends and family would ask us how we are feeling on any given day and we would normally say "ok", fine and alhamdulillah. But are we really feeling "ok"? Sometimes, we may seemed "ok" from the eyes of those who watch but the fact that matter is only ALLAH knows how we truly feel. Pictures speak of a thousand words and often, we are judged by the image people see and by the things they hear. Feeling is something that can't be smelt and can't be touch. Just like when a person says he is hungry or angry. Its a floating element and one can only know when they feel it themselves.
If only hate, love, lust, greed, sincerity and all the common emotional feeling that we get can be put into a box and be hidden. Allah had created those things so that we learn to live properly. Not like animals, they are far different from humans. They cannot control their urges, all they do is mate, eat and sleep BUT that is what the "they-think-they-know-eveything" channel would protray. Allah had mentioned in the Qur'an that even the animals he created remembers Him in the way that only He knows. Those who remembers Allah when he's alone in a mass crowd will be remembered by Allah during the Judgement Day. As fighters of Allah, we all must remember Him when we stand, when we sit and when we lay. This is to strengthen our position on earth and especially when hells breaks loose.
It was mentioned many times that our beloved Prophet Muhammad never acts on his nafs. Meaning he was NEVER a selfish person. He never ate more than what he could bear. He never slept more than he should. He never leaves his men at bay. Normal humans in the other hand have the tendency to act upon their foul intentions such as greed. As the "clan" of Prophet Muhmmad SAW, we need to be aware of our attitude and ensure that our hands, mouth, feet and so on are taken care of. We copycat what he did. Yes, you think by getting your nail-polished or by getting a manicure or pedicure that you are at your highest hygienic point, well you're wrong. The latter mentioned are all exterior clealiness. One of the many great thing about Islam is, it teaches its people to be clean in and out. One may have clean underpants but you don't know what's beneath. That is when ablution kicks in.
Did you know that people in Europe did not bath before Islam came? even in other parts of non-muslims countries. Europeans and other major parts of the non-muslim nations only knew how to bath and take showers after Islam came. Most muslims all over the world have the idea that its the westerns who had the idea of cleaning themselves first. Pity. Can you see how gullible and blurry we are? As muslims, we have to be on the move and to know the LIFE OF THE PROPHET. Because, if not, we will all be fooled by the non-muslim thinkers. Will you let them?
The most important thing now is for each and everyone of us to wake up and "smell" the reality of our fellow brothers and sisters all over the world. We also need to put into our thick mind that life after death, being waken up after a short sleep and being judged in front of Allah is TRUE! If only one can listen to the torment of those who are buried six feet under, all will be crying and all be really prepare themselves for the end..
